I get bored with my closet a lot so I've done a lot of research to find ways to upgrade my outfits without breaking the bank.

Eventually, I found some closet staples that I think can really make an outfit look really put together, without a lot of effort or cost.

Here are some closet staples you should invest in this fall to style your outfits in a whole new way.

A long-sleeve shirt

With the weather getting colder, I sometimes find myself disappointed that I can't wear my favorite oversize T-shirt outside anymore. As a solution, I've started layering and adding a long-sleeved shirt underneath and it is a total game-changer. Suddenly, I'm able to take advantage of so much more of my closet by just adding a simple layer.

There's something about wearing a belt that makes your outfit look so much more put together.

Whether it's a shirt or sweater, nothing says fall better than a cute turtleneck. They're super cozy and look great with any jacket or pair of jeans. Bonus points if you wear stacked necklaces on top!

This is another example of how layering is one of the best ways you can transform pieces in your closet. Wearing a collard shirt under a crewneck has become a pretty popular trend lately, and I can definitely see why.

This super simple addition can make your outfit look completely different, giving you yet another way to wear your favorite crewneck.

Oversized Blazer

Wearing an oversized blazer as a jacket can take your outfit from plain to classy in no time. I've found some really cute and casual blazers that I wear over everything now. Even with a simple top and jeans, this blazer makes you look so put together and stylish.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
